A watercolor painting on yellow legal pad paper, that I then cut into pieces. I really like the effect of the yellow paper. It is not as harsh a white paper, but light enough to still provide contrast. Overall, I am pleased with the way the person in this piece came out. The upper lip/ bottom of the nose area becomes a little muddled, and is thus aggravates me. It was only slightly off in the beginning, but then I kept playing with it and it just got worse and worse. And, as I have noted before, with this thin sort of paper it is nearly impossible to remove the paint once it is down, so there was no going back.
